Fri, 06 Jun 2014 23:59:02 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=114313#comment-3408388From 2011 to 2014, Glennon finished in 54th place among 54 QBs who threw at the combine. He was the only one to finish in the 40s at 49 mph. That puts him in the same class as Josh Johnson, who also threw 49 mph back in 2008. So I guess Josh Johnson had a “cannon” too.

Joe is right though. Glennon may have or be good at some things. But dude does not have this “cannon” of which you speak. I saw 13 games last year to prove he doesn’t have a “cannon”. He simply has a good above average decent arm. That’s all.

I’ll ask you the same question I asked the cop on the stand. Did you clock me on radar? Then how do you know how fast the car(football in this case) was traveling? Question of the hour now, would you be willing for Glennon to fire his cannon at your ass from 40 yards? Then you can tell us how strong his arm is.

His problem isn’t his speed just for the sake off argument say he’s the faster player in all of sports, this is the third team that’s hasn’t been able to harness that speed, I’d you can’t catch passes from two probowl elite quarterbacks, don’t see him being our Percy Harvin….to bad because I’d love to see both thosE speedsters on the field

Agreed. Glennon’s arm is good, but not as strong as:

Thu, 05 Jun 2014 21:11:24 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=114313#comment-3408221Herron is fast. Certainly true. But guys he is not Demps. Even Lovoe has referenced that Demps is faster (fastest player in football remember?) and why can’t we keep both?
Joe, I’m noticing a lot of people on here are either/or people. It’s crazy. Can you discuss that in one of your articles?? I don’t understand it.
Every personnel thing on here is either or with these people. “Well we have Herron, bye Demps!” Why???! That’s silly. They’re both making the team. Period.

Joe hasn’t got problems with folks that disagree with him or respectfully call him out. Note, he didn’t comment on my remarks.
The “Cannon” sarcasm may not be criticism but it certainly isn’t a complement.
I think 87 was warned multiple times….Joe has never had to warn TBBF.

Thu, 05 Jun 2014 20:01:02 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=114313#comment-3408205I see Herron as the primary slot guy because he’s got more experience at WR. Yes, Demps is probably faster in pads, but my question is, how fast is fast enough? A 4.27 vs a 4.33 is picking the flyspit out of the pepper.
Go with better hands and the Bette route runner and not a gadget guy.

I think you took it the wrong way. Looks more like he was knocking The Smith QB and not Glennon for once. Lol

Thu, 05 Jun 2014 19:48:32 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=114313#comment-3408203Demps is fast with pads on also. We’ve all seen it. Herron looks to be equally as fast though. Would be fun to see them race.

Proceed at your own risk.Joe run Buc1987 last night for mouthing off. Keep it up, he gonna run you too!

Jeff Demps is an elite sprinter. I don’t care what Herron says, he is not faster than Demps. Never will be. Now, he may be more elusive and shifty. When it comes to football, that may be more important.

Thu, 05 Jun 2014 19:30:35 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=114313#comment-3408198Leave it to Joe to use a Herron article to add his sarcastic “cannon” comment to ridicule Glennon….I know, “Joe doesn’t have anything against Glennon and wishes him well”. But Joe takes every opportunity to rub it in.
As for Herron…..Bucs desparately need some speed on offense…something we haven’t really had since Galloway. I think Herron will be very tough to handle when we have Evans, Jackson, ASJ on the field with him & a 1 back set with Martin or Sims.
